A 0
B 1
C 16
D 256
Answer: C
Explanation:
Given : a + b + c = 4 -----------(i)
and a 2 + b2 + c2 = ab + bc + ca + 4
=> a 2 + b2 + c2 − ab − bc − ca = 4 ------------(ii)
To find : a 3 + b3 + c3 − 3abc
= (a + b + c)(a 2 + b2 + c2 − ab − bc − ca)
Substituting values from equations (i) and (ii), we get :
= 4 × 4 = 16

=> Ans - (C)
Question 79

Question 80
Two equal circles intersect each other at point A and B, whose centers are O and O’. OO’ = 24 mm and AB
= 10 mm, then find the area (in sq. mm) of the circle.
A 530.66
B 520.66
C 510.33
D 500.33
Answer: A
Explanation:
AB is chord to each of the circle and AB = 10 mm and OO' = 24 mm
Let radius of each circle = r mm

A line drawn from the centre of the circle perpendicular to the chord bisects it in two parts.
10
=> AC = 2 = 5 mm
24
Similarly, OC = 2 = 12 mm
Now, in △ OAC
=> (OA)2 = (OC)2 + (AC)2
(12)2 + (5)2
=> OA = (12)2 + (5)2
=> OA = 144 + 25 = 169

=> OA = 13 mm
∴ Area of triangle = πr2
= 3.14 × (13)2 = 530.66 mm2
=> Ans - (A)
Question 81
The length of the diameter of the circle is 10 cm and length of the chord drawn in a circle is 6 cm. Find
the distance (in cm) of chord from the center.

D 4
Answer: D
Explanation:
Given : Diameter = 10 cm and AB = 6 cm
To find : OM = ?
10
Solution : Radius OB = 2 = 5 cm
6
Also, MB = 2 = 3 cm
In right △ OMB
=> (OM)2 = (OB)2 − (MB)2
=> (OM)2 = (5)2 − (3)2
=> (OM)2 = 25 − 9 = 16
=> OM = 16 = 4 cm
=> Ans - (D)
Question 82

∴ Q = x% of P
Q x
=> P = 100
6
=> x= 5 × 100 = 120
=> Ans - (B)

Question 83
X, Y and Z are partners in a company. In one year X receives 1/4 part of profit, Y receives 1/5 part of
profit and Z receives Rs 22000. How much amount (in Rs) will X get as profit?
A 10000
B 12000
C 15000
D 18000
Answer: A
Explanation:
Let total profit earned = Rs. 20x
1
Profit earned by X = 4 × 20x = 5x
1
Profit earned by Y = 5 × 20x = 4x
=> Profit earned by Z = 20x − (5x + 4x) = 11x
According to ques,
=> 11x = 22, 000

22,000
=> x= 11 = Rs. 2, 000
∴ Amount earned by X as profit = 5 × 2, 000 = Rs. 10, 000
=> Ans - (A)
Question 84
P and Q started a business by investing Rs 50000 and Rs 40000 respectively. After 4 months, P
withdraws Rs 20000 while Q invest Rs 70000 more after 6 months of starting the business. At the end of
the year P’s share in the profit is Rs 11000. What will be the total profit (in Rs) at the end of year?
A 33500
B 27600
C 42800
D 38800

Answer: A
Explanation:
P invested Rs. 50,000 for 4 months and Rs. 30,000 for 8 months
Q invested Rs. 40,000 for 6 months and Rs. 110,000 for 6 months
=> Ratio of profits of P:Q = [(50, 000 × 4) + (30, 000 × 8))] : [(40, 000 × 6) + (110, 000 × 6)]
= (20 + 24) : (24 + 66) = 44 : 90 = 22 : 45
Let total profit earned = Rs. x
22
=> P's share = (22+45) × x = 11, 000
67
=> x = 11, 000 × 22
=> x = 500 × 67 = Rs. 33, 500

=> Ans - (A)
Question 85
The average weight of 25 candles is 40 grams. If some candles of weight 50 grams each were removed,
then average weight becomes 37.5 grams. How many candles of weight 50 grams each were removed?
A 3
B 5
C 8
D 12
Answer: B
Explanation:
Average weight of 25 candles = 40 grams
=> Total weight of 25 candles = 40 × 25 = 1000 grams

Let n candles of 50 grams of weight were removed, then
1000−50n
=> 25−n = 37.5
=> 1000 − 50n = 937.5 − 37.5n
=> 50n − 37.5n = 1000 − 937.5
=> 12.5n = 62.5
62.5
=> n= 12.5 =5
=> Ans - (B)

A 5200
B 5400
C 4500
D 3600

Answer: C
Explanation:
Let principal amount = Rs. x
9 3
Rate of interest = 8% and time period = 12 = 4 years
P×R×T
=> Simple interest = 100
x×8×3
=> 4×100 = 270
6x
=> 100 = 270
270×100
=> x= 6 = Rs. 4, 500
=> Ans - (C)
Question 87
The difference between cost price and selling price is Rs 575. If profit percentage is 23%, then what is
the selling price (in Rs)?
A 3225
B 1925
C 2500
D 3075
Answer: D
Explanation:
Difference between cost price and selling price = Profit = Rs. 575
profit
Profit % = C.P. × 100
575
=> CP × 100 = 23
57500
=> CP = 23 = Rs. 2500
∴ Selling price = Rs. (2500 + 575) = Rs. 3075
=> Ans - (D)
Question 88
A merchant marks the price of his articles 20% above the cost price. If he allows 20% discount, then what
is the profit or loss percentage?
A 2% loss
B 4% profit
C 4% loss
D No profit/loss
Answer: C
Explanation:
Let cost price = Rs. 100x
20
=> Marked price = 100x + ( 100 × 100x) = Rs. 120x
Discount % = 20%
20
20
=> Selling price = 120x − ( 100 × 120x) = Rs. 96x
(100x−96x)
∵ Selling price < Cost price, thus loss % = 100x × 100 = 4%
=> Ans - (C)

Question 89
What is that least digit that must be added to the product 5786 × 5784 to make it a perfect square?
A 1
B 6
C 5
D 4
Answer: A
Explanation:
Expression : 5786 × 5784
= (5785 + 1) × (5785 − 1)
Let 5785 = x
=> (x + 1)(x − 1) = x2 − 1
Clearly to make above term a perfect square, we need to add 1
=> x2 − 1 + 1 = x2
=> Ans - (A)
Question 90
20 boys do one fourth of work in 25 days. How many more boys will be required to complete the
remaining work in 50 days?
A 8
B 10
C 15
D 20
Answer: B
Explanation:
M 1 D1 M 2 D2
Using, W1 = W2 , where M is number of men, D is number of days and W is work done.
Let total work to be done = 4 units
1
=> Remaining work = 4− 4 × 4 = 3 units
Let x more boys are required.
20×25 (x+20)×50
=> 1 = 3
(x+20) 20×25
=> 3 = 50
=> x + 20 = 10 × 3 = 30

=> x = 30 − 20 = 10
∴ 10 more boys will be required to complete the remaining work in 50 days.
=> Ans - (B)
Question 91
When Gopal walks from A to B and returns from B to A on cycle, then it takes him 46 minutes. By walking
both ways, it takes him 75 minutes. If he rides cycle both ways then what will be the total time (in
minutes)?
A 19
B 17
C 23
D 15
Answer: B
Explanation:
Let speed of walking = x m/min and speed of cycling = y m/min
Let distance between A and B = dm
According to ques, when he walks both ways,
d d
=> x + x = 75
d 75
=> x = 2 = 37.5
d d
Also, x + y = 46
d
=> y = 46 − 37.5 = 8.5
d d
∴ Time taken if he cycles both ways = y + y
= 8.5 + 8.5 = 17 minutes

=> Ans - (B)
